Free Speech Union South Africa
The Free Speech Union of South Africa (FSU SA) is a company that promotes freedom of speech and opinion, and supports organisations and individuals whose rights are at risk whether in the workplace or the public square.
To this end we:
- Promote how crucial freedom of speech is to sustaining a healthy democracy;
- Criticise and oppose efforts to restrict free speech;
- Educate and inform about the right to free speech and the obligations it imposes;
- Offer formal and informal talks and webinars about free speech to individuals, businesses and schools;
- Try to advise and assist in the event that your right to speak freely is limited or challenged by any person/s, institution or media platform;
- Recommend specialists who may be able to assist those at risk.
We issue press releases, write letters, op-eds and articles, give interviews in on radio and television, and produce a podcast entitled Free Speech Matters.
“Without freedom of thought, there can be no such thing as wisdom - and no such thing as public liberty without freedom of speech.” - Benjamin Franklin
